Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Ju Su felt that as long as they could design a good trap, they could capture Zhang Xiu.

Cheng Pu and Huang Zhong agreed deeply after hearing this.

Ju Shou looked at their expressions and knew that they all agreed with his opinion, so he nodded with satisfaction.

"If you all agree with what I say, then we will do it according to my way.

Although Zhang Xiu is young, he is extremely powerful, so we have to be on guard against him."

All the generals agreed, and they were also very afraid of Zhang Xiu.

Ju Su began to make a detailed plan, which included food, equipment, money, etc.

Ju Su had been a wise and resourceful man in Jizhou, and was good at calculating, which was why he was able to become Sikong.

All the generals were impressed by Ju Shou's arrangements and praised his wise decision.

After arranging the specific matters, Ju Su summoned all the generals to discuss the specific details.

"Everyone, this time we have to severely damage Zhang Xiu's main force, otherwise our army will not be able to successfully capture Yecheng." Ju Su stated his goal straight to the point.

"We, the generals, swear to serve you till death." Cheng Pu, Huang Zhong, Gao Lan and other soldiers said in unison.

Ju Shou smiled and nodded, then said: "Okay, then we will split up."

Ju Shou, Cheng Pu, Huang Zhong and Gao Lan were responsible for one direction, and Ju Shou's plan was very simple.

Send spies to lurk in the enemy camp to find out Yuan Shao's strength and find a suitable breakthrough.

Ju Shou, Cheng Pu and three others, along with their subordinates, rode their horses at full speed towards Yuan Shao's camp.

The plan that Ju Su just mentioned is actually quite simple.

Yuan Shao is a smart man and will definitely pay attention to these details.

Ju Shou and others encountered several waves of Yuan army patrols on the way.

Ju Su and his four companions pretended nothing had happened and bypassed Yuan Shao's patrol team.

When they were about to approach Yuan Shao's camp, Ju Shou suddenly stopped Cheng Pu and Gao Lan and ordered, "General Cheng, General Gao, you two lead 500 elite soldiers to ambush nearby. If you see the enemy coming out, charge directly and kill them."

The two nodded and left.

"Mr. Yuan Hao, why did you let them leave?" Huang Zhong asked puzzledly.

Ju Su smiled and said, "I have another plan!"

Huang Zhong thought to himself: Could it be that Ju Shou has some other tricks up his sleeve?
Ju Su brought Huang Zhong to a place a few dozen steps away from Yuan Shao's camp and stopped.

"What is this kid Ju Shou going to do?" Huang Zhong was surprised. He felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Ju Shou.

Ju Shou looked at Huang Zhong and smiled brightly.

Huang Zhong looked at Ju Shou's smile and felt horrified. What was this guy trying to do?
"Mr. Yuan Hao, do you have any other plan?" Huang Zhong said vigilantly.

Ju Su said with a smile: "General Huang, you have followed the lord for so many years and have made great contributions. How dare I deceive you? But I have a treasure to present to the lord."

Huang Zhong asked in confusion: "Offer a treasure? What treasure?"

Ju Shou chuckled and said, "Zhang Xiu's martial arts are so powerful, I wonder if General Huang has ever seen it?"

Huang Zhong shook his head and said, "No! Zhang Xiu's martial arts are indeed amazing."

Ju Su asked, "So what is Zhang Xiu most proud of?"

Huang Zhong frowned and said, "Riding skills, and bravery!"

Ju Su said: "Riding skills and bravery are one kind of strength, but Zhang Xiu has two unique qualities!"

"Which two?" Huang Zhong asked hurriedly.

Ju Su said: "Zhang Xiu's identity!"

Huang Zhong was stunned. He realized that he had not really studied Zhang Xiu's identity carefully.

He originally thought that Zhang Xiu was a general of Beihai State, or a general of another county, but he did not expect that Zhang Xiu had such a prominent identity. Huang Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "So that's it! No wonder Zhang Xiu is so powerful!"

"Hahaha! Zhang Xiu's parents were high-ranking officials of the Beihai Kingdom, and he was also a general of the Beihai Kingdom. With a noble status, he was naturally very powerful.

I wonder what General Huang thinks of Zhang Xiu's identity?" Ju Su asked.

Ju Su was very concerned about Zhang Xiu's identity. If Zhang Xiu could surrender to them, they would make a fortune.

Huang Zhong said: "Zhang Xiu is a relative of the Han Dynasty, and he is also the cousin of Han Emperor Cao Ang. If Zhang Xiu surrenders to us, I am afraid."

"General Huang is worrying too much. The lord is a direct descendant of the Liu family. No matter how noble Zhang Xiu is, he is just a side branch.

Besides, the relationship between the lord and Zhang Xiu is not very good. If he surrenders to us, will the lord forgive him in the future?" Ju Su retorted.

Ju Su's words really touched Huang Zhong's heart. His relationship with Zhang Liao was because of Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu had not had a conflict with Cao Ang, Zhang Liao would not have rebelled.

Ju Shou continued, "Moreover, Zhang Xiu has a strong character and is unwilling to be inferior to others, let alone surrender in order to save his life."

"Then Mr. Ju means that Zhang Xiu will not agree to surrender?" Huang Zhong said with shining eyes.

Ju Su smiled and said, "That is a must."

"Then what should we do?" Huang Zhong asked.

Ju Su said mysteriously: "If Zhang Xiu is unwilling to surrender, we will force him to surrender. As long as Zhang Xiu surrenders, we will immediately attack Yecheng."

"But our army's troops are far superior to Zhang Xiu's. How can we make them surrender?" Huang Zhong was a little worried.

Ju Su said confidently: "Zhang Xiu's troops are indeed powerful, but that doesn't mean that everyone under his command is powerful."

Ju Shou saw Huang Zhong's confused look and continued, "We are dealing with Zhang Xiu, not his soldiers."

Huang Zhong understood and said excitedly: "Sir, you are right. The officers around Zhang Xiu are all mediocre in martial arts and cannot withstand a single blow.

All we need to do is capture them and force Zhang Xiu to surrender, and we will be safe.”

"That's right." Ju Su said with a smile.

Huang Zhong and Ju Shou reached a consensus, and the two led their men to grope towards Zhang Xiu's camp.

After Ju Shou and Huang Zhong wandered around Yuan Shao's camp, they determined that Zhang Xiu's camp was heavily guarded and it was impossible to raid Yuan Shao's camp.

Ju Shou said to Huang Zhong, "Zhang Xiu is too cautious. It seems we can't accomplish anything tonight."

Huang Zhong sighed. Ju Su was right. Zhang Xiu was really too cautious.

If both of them were not military generals, they probably wouldn't even be able to enter Yuan Shao's camp.

Ju Shou looked at Zhang Xiu's tent with a gloomy face. He had already decided to take action tonight.

Night is about to cover the entire battlefield. Under the cover of darkness, everything is hidden and quiet.

Ju Shou and Huang Zhong hid in the bushes, observing Yuan Shao's camp with bated breath, waiting for the opportunity to come.

Finally, shouts of killing were heard from Yuan Shao’s camp, followed by the lighting of torches and the guarding soldiers beginning to gather.

Ju Shou said to Huang Zhong, "General Huang, prepare for action."

"Yes, sir!" Huang Zhong had already made sufficient preparations and was ready to take action at any time.

Ju Shou and Huang Zhong signaled to each other, then they jumped out of the bushes at the same time and rushed towards Zhang Xiu's camp.

"Thieves! Don't hurt my lord!" Inside Zhang Xiu's camp, Xu You roared, drew his sword and slashed at Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong dodged Xu You's attack easily and snorted coldly: "How dare a mere rat like you be so presumptuous!"

Xu You did not expect Huang Zhong to be so powerful. His sword missed and he became angry and continued to attack Huang Zhong with his sword.

While Huang Zhong was fending off Xu You's attack, he shouted at Ju Shou, "Mr. Ju, why don't you take action?"

When Ju Shou heard Huang Zhong's reminder, he quickly jumped behind Xu You and stabbed him in the back with a knife.

Xu You cried out in pain, turned around and slashed at Ju Shou with his sword, but was blocked by Huang Zhong. (End of this chapter)
